SUSTAINABILITY AND BUSINESS
STRATEGY
Balancing social and environmental considerations
in meeting the current as well as future energy
needs underpin the Group’s commitment to
generating long-term business value.

Context:
Energy is an essential component for growth, with
crude oil and natural gas constituting a significant
portion of the global energy mix. The projected
increase in global population, growing urbanisation
rate and the quest to support burgeoning
socio-economic developments collectively
intensify the need for energy resources. The
challenge herein lies in meeting increasing energy
needs while being mindful of the changing social
and environmental landscape, conscious that
energy resources are finite.

Realities facing the global oil and gas industry


include:
• Higher cost of monetising and adding value to
energy resources
• Environmental risks related to climate change
and fresh water use
• Shrinking profits due to the plunging oil price
Approach:
• Increasing demand and requirements from

regulations on environmental and social requirements in countries of

PRODUCT STEWARDSHIP
Context:
The Downstream Business, in particular, produces an array of chemicals for
use across multiple industries, and formulates fuels and lubricants. The use of
chemicals sourced externally also facilitates day-to-day operations, requiring
strict adherence to PETRONAS’ safety and health requirements.

Approach:
PETRONAS’ product stewardship practices are aligned with industry good
practices such as that by the United Nations Strategic Approach to
International Chemicals Management (SAICM) 2020 goals. The Group’s
product lifecycle management approach encompasses prudent risk
assessments to ensure the substances developed and chemicals utilised
across its operations are safe for people and the environment. The Group’s
dedicated team of internal experts spearhead the development of Safety Data
Sheets (SDS) for the products it manufactures and undertakes continuous
hazard communication. This is central to the aim of achieving sustainable
sound chemical management and ongoing engagements with stakeholders
to communicate HSE measures such as safe handling of chemicals and
transportation of dangerous goods. Simultaneously, this ensures the Group
delivers more efficient products formulated using innovative solutions which
offer superior quality, meeting evolving stakeholder requirements through
rigorous research and development activities.

The Carbon Commitments drive the Company’s efforts to reduce carbon footprint and improve
operational efficiency. The intent is on reducing flaring and venting in Upstream, and improving energy
efficiency in Downstream as well as other operations, where PETRONAS has operational control. Key
efforts in 2015 included:
• Carbon footprinting covering monitoring, reporting and verification of GHG emissions;
• Climate change mitigation and adaptation activities;
• Investment in low-carbon technology;
• Climate change awareness and capability building; and
• Ongoing engagements with key stakeholders.

Improved Governance Mechanisms on Climate Change


Over time, PETRONAS has strengthened existing systems and processes to ensure the effective
management of its Carbon Commitments and other supporting initiatives to reduce GHG emissions,
including:
• Embedded GHG monitoring and reporting requirements in the HSE Mandatory Control Framework
(MCF);
• Developed the PETRONAS GHG Monitoring, Reporting and Verification Standard;
• Implemented the Exploration and Production Flaring and Venting Framework and Guideline;
• Enhanced PETRONAS Energy Practices Standard (PEPSTAR) to support the Energy and Loss

PETRONAS HUMAN RIGHTS COMMITMENT

Human Rights is generally defined as basic standards of treatment entitled to


every person, regardless of gender, nationality, ethnic origin, religion,
spoken language, or any other status. In the larger scope, it is incumbent
upon organisations to uphold fair business practices to mitigate potential
consequences arising from unintentional infringement of human rights
within the value chain. In recognition of this, PETRONAS went beyond the
conventional ambits by expanding our focus to include our local
communities’ wellbeing as a key consideration when carrying out
day-to-day operations, by establishing the Human Rights Commitment.

IN SARAWAK

Sarawak is an important State in the development of oil and gas industry in


Malaysia. Oil was discovered in 1910 and the industry has exponentially
developed into an integrated oil and gas value-chain since the enactment of the
1974 Petroleum Development Act and the stewardship of PETRONAS; from oil
and gas production, to liquefaction of Natural Gas, to feedstock supply for
petrochemical products and feed source to electricity and reticulation businesses.
Today, Sarawak is producing an average of 850 thousand barrels of oil equivalent
per day (kboe/d) from 64 fields with 23 investors.

For the gas business, our PETRONAS LNG


Complex, or in short MLNG, at Bintulu, which
started its operations in 1983, is currently running
on 8 trains, with a total capacity of 25.7 million
tonnes per annum (MTPA). A further expansion of
our MLNG will see a ninth train to be operated in
2016, adding another 3.6 MTPA of capacity.

Additionally, our PFLNG Satu, the world’s first


floating Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), will begin
operating in 2016 at the Kanowit gas field located
offshore Bintulu. With a capacity of 1.2 MTPA, the
PFLNG Satu is set to redefine the business
landscape, as processes such as liquefaction,
production and processing of LNG will be carried
out closer to the source of gas. Previously, this
was only possible at onshore plants, making it
difficult to monetise stranded gas resources in an
economical and safe manner.

As for downstream, we operate the Asean Bintulu

• Accelerate corporate social investment (CSI) programmes

Developing Local Vendor


The thriving oil and gas industry in Sarawak entails a pool of qualified and
credible local service providers capable of competing at the global forefront.
Hence, PETRONAS collaborated with the State Government to spearhead
strategies to enhance the participation of local Sarawakian companies in the
industry, equipped with desired competencies and market competitiveness.

In 2015, we held nine engagement sessions with the State authorities and
two seminars on licensing processes and procurement governance for local
vendors. We also established three licensing counters, namely, in Kuching,
Bintulu and Miri to facilitate applications of licenses. As a result, the number of
Sarawak vendors with PETRONAS license increased by 15 per cent from 328
in 2014 to 385 in 2015.

Mutual Growth Aspirations


We embarked on numerous long-term initiatives
to inspire and empower local communities
focusing on the areas of education; community
wellbeing and development; and environment.
PETRONAS had invested over RM87 million to
execute over 100 CSI programmes in Sarawak,
between 2010 and 2015, and will continue to
invest towards initiatives aimed at upholding the
wellbeing of Sarawakians.

Education: The PETRONAS Education


Sponsorship Programme (PESP) provides selected
students with opportunities to pursue tertiary
education at local and international universities,
whereas the Program Sentuhan Ilmu PETRONAS
(PSIP) focuses on strengthening the academic and
non-academic achievements of students residing
at selected areas of its operations in Sarawak.

PETRONAS is also jointly contributing towards the


construction of a new Maktab Rendah Sains
MARA (MRSM) in Bintulu and the establishment of
Asrama Desa facilities at three selected schools.

Education sponsorship are also extended to


selected students hailing from underprivileged
families studying at MRSM Kuching, MRSM Betong

PETRONAS also jointly-sponsored the Trust

• Program Sentuhan Harapan PETRONAS for providing food aid and

• PETRONAS’ Disaster Relief Programme to channel immediate aid in

In addition, PETRONAS will expand coverage of the Vocational Institution


Sponsorship and Training Assistance (VISTA) programme to support four
additional technical institutions, namely Centre of Technical Excellence
Sarawak, Pusat Pembangunan Kemahiran Sarawak, Institut Latihan

The assistance will include provision of machineries and heavy

well as financial support for selected trainees.

Environment: Some of the Group’s ongoing commitments include


contributions towards the Biodiversity, Environmental and
